New York.- Democratic candidates for Upper Manhattan and the Bronx, the Dominicans Adriano Espaillat, congressman for the 13th district, and the state assemblymen Carmen de la Rosa and Víctor Pichardo, for the 72nd and 86th, won reelection in Tuesday’s midterm elections.

The current state senators, the also Dominicans Marisol Alcántara and José Peralta, after losing the past Democratic primary opted to run independently, but failed again.
